The war has left Lebanon’s farmers devastated—burnt olive groves, shattered livelihoods, and disrupted food supply chains. Swipe to see the full impact and the steps needed to rebuild.

Seeing Syria today makes me realize how much we’ve rendered it invisible. How we allowed a merciless dictatorship be rationalized in our politics.

There are prisons in Syria if broken down will unravel some of the most horrifying atrocities of the 21st century. We are all not ready to see this.

[Timour Azhari @timourazhari]

For his supporters, Yahya Sinwar’s final images portray him as the archetype of Palestinian resistance — wounded, ashen and yet defiant, staring down an Israeli drone with contempt from behind a keffiyeh before trying to down it with asymmetric force.

How Israel Uses Sex To Sell Zionism.

ER rooms are overflowing across a whole country, hundreds of explosions in crowded markets and streets. How will Western “free” media cover this terror attack? What words will they use to describe it? What role will they assign to themselves, their governments and corporations?

Reading the NYTimes can restore your faith in God. Pagers explode without anyone detonating them. Bombs fall without anyone dropping them. Bullets pierce people without anyone shooting them. Subhanallah.

A must-read to understand the devastating scale of the Israeli genocide in Gaza. This commentary reveals that the reported 40,000 direct deaths are only a fraction of the true toll—when including indirect deaths, the number likely exceeds 200,000.

[Badil | The Alternative Policy Institute @Badilmedia]

The true devastation of Israel's war on Gaza goes far beyond the immediate violence. Israel has killed over 40,000 people directly, and when including those dying from starvation, disease, and lack of healthcare, the total death toll is likely to surpass 200,000 lives, as detailed in this new commentary by Badil’s @spencerosberg.

Who the hell wrote the last season of the umbrella academy????? So lazy and such a waste..

[Mohammed El-Kurd @m7mdkurd]

Countless Israelis, including senior government officials, are partaking in a Rape Revolution to protect the right of prison guards to systemically rape Palestinians. Do you fathom how cartoonish that sounds? And yet, despite that, Western journalists are still coddling Israel.

Sometimes I feel that the Lebanese insistence on setting off fireworks at the most inappropriate of times is a form of national exposure therapy

1/ 🧵 Amid military escalations along Lebanon's southern border, the Lebanese Army remains firmly sidelined yet crucial for any diplomatic resolution. However, Western donor money to the LAF does not always mean help. Here’s why money contingent on reforms is better. #Lebanon

Children in Gaza are writing their wills. Eleven-year-old Mohammed writes, "Forgive me, mom, please don't be sad if I die."
